The family consists of white-rot fungi, some of which are serious tree pathogens. Combining morphological evidence with a phylogenetic dataset of six genetic markers, we revise generic concepts in the family and propose a seven-genus classification system for the family. Two genera are introduced as new: the monotypic <i>Acanthodontia</i> for <i>Radulodon cirrhatinus</i>, and <i>Lividopora</i> for the <i>Rigidoporus vinctus</i> complex. We re-introduce the name <i>Somion</i> for the <i>Spongipellis delectans</i> complex. Other recognized genera in the family are <i>Cerrena, Irpiciporus, Pseudolagarobasidium</i>, and <i>Radulodon</i>.
